Description: iWoz by Steve Wozniak, Gina Smith A New York Times Bestseller: "iWoz traces the life and times of a brilliant, gifted...individual whose contributions to the scientific, business and cultural realms are extensive." —Bookpage FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Before slim laptops that fit into briefcases, computers looked like strange, alien vending machines. But in "the most staggering burst of technical invention by a single person in high-tech history" (?BusinessWeek?) Steve Wozniak invented the first true personal computer. Wozniak teamed up with Steve Jobs, and Apple Computer was born, igniting the computer revolution and transforming the world. Here, thirty years later, the mischievous genius with the low profile treats readers to a rollicking, no-holds-barred account of his life-for once, in the voice of the wizard himself. Author Biography Steve Wozniak has been inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame and has received numerous awards, including the National Medal of Technology and the Heinz Award. He lives in California. Review "This memoir truly reflects its author, both in its subject matter and its happy-go-lucky tone... A welcome, fresh perspective for an industry that seems so far removed from its original ideas." -- Peter Burrows - BusinessWeek "The mastermind behind Apple tells his story for the first time, from the invention of the first personal computer to the rise of Apple as an industry giant." -- Book Passage "At last, Mr. Wozniak gets the stage all to himself [in a] chatty memoir full of surprises... He reveals a technology pioneer more charming-and whose life is more poignant-than we expected." -- George Anders - Wall Street Journal Review Text "One cant help getting caught up in [Wozniaks] excitement.... Wozniak learned to think differently long before the company he helped found ever started using that phrase in a marketing campaign." Review Quote "This memoir truly reflects its author, both in its subject matter and its happy-go-lucky tone...A welcome, fresh perspective for an industry that seems so far removed from its original ideas."
